Android in its current form suffers from several key architectural
problems - it’s not nearly as resource-efficient as, say, iOS, has
consistent update problems, and despite hefty hardware, still
suffers from the occasional performance problems, among other
things - that Google clearly hasn’t been able to solve. It feels
like Android is in limbo, waiting for something, as if Google is
working on something else that will eventually succeed Android.

Is that something Fuchsia? Is Project Treble part of the
plan, to make it easier for Google to eventually replace Android’s
Linux base with something else? If Android as it exists today was
salvageable, why are some of the world’s greatest operating
systems engineers employed by Google not working on Android, but
on Fuchsia? If Fuchsia is just a research operating system,
why did its developers recently add actual wallpapers to the
repository? Why does every design choice for Fuchsia seem
specifically designed for and targeted at solving Android’s core
problems?
